FM108.US

FM108.US (formerly N4iB.COM) plays only CC Licensed Music Artists and itself a CC Licenced Internet Radio Station. FM108.US is a hobby project with a zero income, and is totally supported by the station's owner, Steve Speirs, now retired.

Don't let this candid disclosure make you think FM108.US is just another station run by a DJ-Want-To-Be. Steve has thirty years experience as a United States major market radio air personality, with experience in program direction, and engineering as well. The station has both professional jingles, & voice-over promo packages, and in place of commerical advertizing, will be airing public service announcments. Some of these PSA's will be promoting CC Licensed Artists, as well as Creative Commons Licencing and Internet Sharing Freedom.

To Summerize: FM108.US's mission, is to showcase unsigned recording artist's works in a totally CC Professional Internet Broadcast environment in order to promote both these artists, and the continued freedom of all artforms on the World-Wide-Web through Creative Commons Licencing.

FM108.US's entire music playlist is downloaded solely from Jamendo's "Top 100," which is credited in the stations CC Licence, as well as linking the "Jamendo Artists" pages in the licence section, "further permissions." Steve has completed the station's new studio in Little Rock, Arkansas, United States.

Steve and his friends moved the station's equipment into the new studio space on May 16, through May 18, 2009. Under the call sign "N4ib" the station's on-air target date was May 20, 2009. Then a change of events occured concerning the name of the station's domain name being the same as the station's call sign, which unknown to Steve, just happened to be the call sign of a HAM Radio Operator's Station. To resolve the conflict, it just was easier to re-brand the station to a non-call-sign more generic name. Hense the change to, "FM108.US."

The station's new official on-air date is now the 4th of July. The FM108.US web site will not active and viewable until the afternoon of July 3rd. Feel free to contact Steve: Temporary email is "S.Joel.Speirs@gmail.com," until the station is on the air at which time the email will change to: "Steve@FM108.US."

The station's telephone remained the same after the move except the prefix changed from "372" to "224," so the number is now: 1-501-224-6442. A lot of work went into keeping the last four digits of the phone number "6442" so that after the move across town the phone number would still spell out as "N4iB." Steve has already checked, and there is no way to make FM108 work out in a similar fashion with another phone number. FYI: The station is in time zone +GMT6, or United States Central Time.

This info will be updated again AFTERBold text the station is safely on the air... Just in case something else goes wrong!
